Most Hated Person on Campus

The Most Hated Person on Campus is an award given out semiannually to a student who runs for Senator in the ASUCD Election. That candidate may or may not win — but the important part is how many last ranked votes they received in the election. Since the last vote in a senate race will mathematically *never* be counted, the only reason to rank to the end is just to show someone how much you care.

Note that there is generally no real hatred involved, and the "honor" can, and usually is, held with pride, especially by people running protest or parody races.

Most Hated People:

• Rev. Chad Van Schoelandt - Fall 2004
• Rev. Chad Van Schoelandt - Winter 2005 - 64 votes
• Joe Harney Fall 2005 - 97 votes
• Mo Li - Winter 2006 - 203 votes

• Zachary Hansen - Fall 2010 - 125 votes
• Eli Yani - Winter 2011 - 150 votes - Yani has the distinction of being the first Most Hated Person to actually win a senate seat.

• Hey, don't sweat it. It's somewhat of an honor, albeit a dubious one. Van Schoelandt was kinda proud of it, in fact. Whatever you do, don't give up. I'd like to be able to vote for you again in the fall election. :) —WilliamLewis
• I'm saddened that you received the most last place votes - I would have hoped that that status would have been given to one of the fake candidates. :(. I dunno, I guess it might have been the profanity thing, as it offended some. —JosephBleckman

2007-02-24 23:03:24   I didn't place you last place... since I'm not an idiot, everyone else must be an idiot. —TusharRawat

2009-02-20 20:22:26   Who'd have thunk that the guy who essentially said rape victims should be more responsible when it comes to not being raped would win this category? —MattBlair
